Prime Minister Andrew Holness says the Government is committed to ensuring that there is universal access to secondary education.

The Government has launched the Alternative Pathways to Secondary Education (APSE), which will provide students with additional and improved teaching programmes. Under APSE, instruction will be based on tailored curricula, enabling each learner to perform to his/her fullest potential, based on aptitude, interest and ability.

The Education Ministry this morning launched its Alternative Pathways to Secondary Education initiative. Education Minister Senator Ruel Reid said the initiative will provide a new approach to teaching to ensure every student gets the best opportunity to learn and succeed.
